Theoktistos
Theoktistos ((ギリシア語:Θεόκτιστος); died November 20, 855) was an influential senior Byzantine official during the reigns of Michael II and his son Theophilos, and the ''de facto'' head of the regency for the underage Michael III from 842 until his dismissal and murder in 855. He is noted for his administrative and political competence, for ending the Byzantine Iconoclasm, and for helping the ongoing renaissance in education within the Empire.
== Early life ==
Nothing is known of Theoktistos' early life. He is called a eunuch in the sources, although a passing reference to a daughter has cast some doubt on this. By 820 he held an unspecified position at the court of Emperor Leo V the Armenian (ruled 813–822), possibly as a member of the imperial guard. Theoktistos played a major role in the plot to assassinate Leo, and was rewarded by the new emperor, Michael II the Amorian (r. 822–829), with the rank of ''patrikios'', and the confidential court post of ''chartoularios tou kanikleiou'' ("secretary of the ink-pot"). Under Michael's son and successor, Theophilos (r. 829–842), he obviously continued to be a trusted advisor, as he rose to the rank of ''magistros'', and was appointed ''logothetēs tou dromou'', effectively the Empire's foreign minister. Theophilos also appointed him as a member of the regency council for his two-year-old son Michael III shortly before his death in January 842.
